ALBERT COHEN

Hardworking construction professionals understand the risks they take on a daily basis. Yet, even the most careful workers can suffer serious injuries. New York labor laws are in place to protect them when property owners and outside contractors fail to ensure their safety.

Workers’ compensation can cover a portion of medical expenses, depending on the extent of the injury. However, third-party personal injury claims against negligent parties can provide the help construction workers and their families need long into the future.

Call Cohen & Cohen Personal Injury Lawyers, P.C. if you have been injured in a wall or ceiling collapse on a New York City metropolitan area construction site. Contact our office to schedule a free case evaluation.

PROTECTING THE RIGHTS OF CONSTRUCTION WORKERS AND THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) established specific recommendations to prevent collapsed ceiling or wall injuries. A qualified professional must verify that a concrete structure can support construction loads. These structures must be shored or braced until the concrete is verified to be strong or a permanent support is in place.

Ignoring safety standards or poor weather conditions can lead to catastrophic construction accidents that result in career-ending injuries and worse. A hardworking construction employee and primary wage earner could lose his or her life due to substandard construction or a lack of bracing and shoring.

At Cohen & Cohen Personal Injury Lawyers, P.C., we hold property owners, tool manufacturers and negligent subcontractors accountable for ongoing medical care, lost wages and potential earnings, and pain and suffering.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
CAR ACCIDENT QUESTIONS

The insurance company wants to talk to you. Should you?

You should speak with a car crash attorney first. Insurance company representatives are there to protect the insurance company’s bottom line by paying out as little as possible if anything. They are not there to help you, even if they sound friendly.

 

What is the value of your case? The insurance company says it wants to pay you less than you thought they would.

This is also where an attorney can help. An experienced attorney can help you see how your case should be valued as opposed to the insurance company using their initial number as a place to begin bargaining. An attorney can handle that back-and-forth on your behalf.

 

When should I see a doctor?

If you have not already seen a doctor, you need to do so. Car accident injuries can often be hidden from plain sight. Your attorney should be able to assist you in locating a reliable medical professional.

How long will a car accident case take?

The real answer depends on a variety of factors that can be taken into account by your attorney. That answer will depend on the complexity of the injuries, the complexity of any insurance provisions, and if the insurance company counsel is reasonable, just to name a few factors.

 

What about going to court? Is that always necessary?

No, it is not always necessary. Many times, negotiating for a settlement will prove sufficient. There are times, however, when a trial will best protect your rights. You should be able to rely on your attorney to develop a relationship with you so they can help you understand the legal options that best meet your needs and goals.
